The Vietnamese stock market closed higher on Tuesday with the VN-Index posting slimmer gains on the eve of the US presidential election, as investors braced for market turbulence this week.
 
The benchmark VN-Index on the Hồ Chí Minh Stock Exchange increased by 0.19 per cent to close at 935.41 points.
 
It had gained 0.89 per cent to close Monday at 933.68 points.

In the VN-30 basket, 18 stocks gained ground, eleven decreased and one remained flat.
 
“Market liquidity improved compared to the previous session, and market breadth was in a positive status, indicating that demand was dominating,” said BIDV Securities Co.
 
“According to our assessment, the VN-Index may have a large fluctuation session tomorrow when the majority of states' vote results in the US are announced.”
 
Shares of sugar company Thành Thành Công-Biên Hòa JSC (SBT) soared 4.4 per cent after the company announced positive earning results, with revenue up 15 per cent and profit up 192 per cent.
 
Other blue-chips also performed well such as the Vietnam Rubber Group JSC (GVR), Techcombank (TCB), FPT Corporation (FPT), Asia Commercial Bank (ACB) and Bảo Việt Holdings (BVH).
 
Some large-caps still declined due to profit-taking pressure including Vingroup (VIC), Masan Group (MSN), Phú Nhuận Jewelry (PNJ) and Sabeco (SAB).
